Putnam River Trail
About Putnam
River Trial
The
1.32-mile Putnam River Trail, completed in 1998 as a part of the
East Coast Greenway that will link many U. S. cities, winds through
the park. There, two of the trail's five interpretive plaques explain
the founding of Putnam and the impact of the 1955 flood. A monument
on the trail below the historical marker honors Dr. Robert Dinolt,
originally of Vienna, Austria, as a "physician, planner, public
servant." Plans are now underway for the 2003 dedication of
a new, spacious, state-of-theart bandstand, which will greatly increase
park activities and continue Putnam's "Common" heritage.
